Halifax OTP SMS

Hi, Anyone else finding that Halifax isn't sending out an SMS?
I couldn't log in last night and same today
I haven't called them yet as I don't want to spend an hour on hold and pay for the privilege.

Will try my Halifax online account and report back. However I am currently trying to sort my YBS and Virgin OTP issue that is the same as yours. I just dont receive a text OTP for either YBS or Virgin. Its very frustrating and after contacting both YBS & Virgin and following all their advice its still not working. YBS said ring back today and we will get a techy to look at the problem but thought I would try this forum first. Anyone got any ideas? I have hundreds of texts from YBS and Virgin but from around the 2nd week of January I am receiving no OTP texts?
Fortunately YBS allows a call to the same mobile that works ok so I can get access but Virgin is OTP to your mobile only.
Appreciate forum comments on what I could do to sort my OTP text to mobile (iphone 11 / SKY) issue? Thanks.0 -
